Remember when kale was everywhere as it was labeled a “superfood,” and the fad took off with health-conscious consumers looking to fill up with the 17 nutrients it contains? The same can be said for oats, which have remained a popular milk alternative at cafes. Avocado toast at its peak was on every breakfast menu and jokingly blamed for the financial status of millennials. Salmon, or fish oil, omega 3, rose to popularity, so many can identify the large liquid pills down the vitamin aisle. The Brazilian berry, acai, is another food included in this category. However, it has stood the test of time as multiple shops countrywide offer the delicious bowl on their menus and undoubtedly celebrate National Acai Bowl Day.

Since childhood parties or Friday nights when our parents were too tired to cook after a long work week, we learned to delight in a slice of pizza. Perhaps you partook in Pizza Hut’s reading program, Book It!, where you would be awarded a Personal Pan Pizza for attaining a reading goal. While pizza, likely for this reason, has been my favorite food since second grade, my preferences have evolved. Flatbread, thin crust, thick crust, stuffed crust, and cauliflower are some options we have developed over centuries. It was only 80 years ago that Italian descendants, Ike Sewell and Ric Riccardo, introduced the Chicago-style pizza at their Pizzeria Uno and gave us a reason to celebrate National Deep Dish Pizza Day.

Whether as the start to a celebration, the cap to a work week, or the finale to a toast – raise your glass to National Cocktail Day celebrated annually on March 24. Cocktails ironically gained immense popularity during the prohibition era. They were used as a means to mask the offensive flavor of the illegal liquor being produced at the time through the addition of ingredients like honey and fruit juice and were surreptitiously enjoyed in speakeasies. For centuries globally, cocktails have united friends, family, and even strangers from several cultures as they gather together to delight in all the varieties of popular beverages.

Cheers on National Cocktail Day
